Cindy Einhouse Writes Beck Center 90th History Book
by Julie Gilliland 25 Apr '22

25 Apr '22

Lucinda Einhouse, President & CEO Of Beck Center For The Arts, Writes Inspiring 90th Year History Book Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org> is excited to announce that Lucinda "Cindy" Einhouse<https://www.beckcenter.org/about/leadership> has completed, and published, the first history book about Beck Center for the Arts covering the organization's nearly 90 years of existence. Cindy Einhouse, a Lakewood, Ohio<https://www.lakewoodoh.gov/> resident and alumna of Hiram College<https://www.hiram.edu/apply/?utm_source=localiq&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign…>, Kent State University<https://www.kent.edu/>, and Cleveland State University<https://www.csuohio.edu/>, is a life-long arts enthusiast. She started her career at Playhouse Square,<https://www.playhousesquare.org/> then went to the non-profit fundraising juggernaut Cleveland Clinic<https://my.clevelandclinic.org/>, and then Cleveland Institute of Music<https://www.cim.edu/>, before taking her professional talents to the west side. Cindy was serving as a board member for Beck Center for the Arts when a member of the committee searching for a new President & CEO said the answer was "right in front of us," according to Rosemary Corcoran, Beck Center Board member. The dynamic leader is coming up on her 15th year with this professional theater and arts education non-profit organization. Available for $29.95 exclusively on Amazon.com,<https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VHCLDSM?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860> the book is printed and delivered on-demand, with all profits going to an endowment for Beck Center for the Arts. Writing this history book took place over a nine-month period and was an intense labor of love for Cindy Einhouse. Cindy says, "Anticipating the organization's 90th theater season in 2023-24, I was inspired to dig through the archives and tell the story about the generations of people who have come through these doors for arts experiences. I met with a small team of history lovers on Friday mornings from April through December of 2021, to sort out information, discover treasures, do research, and share ideas. Dozens of individuals helped review edits, provide information, and share memories. They are all listed in the final chapter of the book." This collectable coffee table paperback book is 196 pages in length, with full color photos starting with an explanation about the country's "Little Theatre Movement," the early days of the organization as "The Guild of the Masques" to the evolution of Lakewood Little Theatre and the education programs, through today. Vital collaborations and historic news articles are included along with vibrant production shots of plays and musicals throughout the years. Stories of challenges and triumphs abound, and the birth of many of Beck Center's stars, especially in theater and dance, are regaled. Beck Center for the Arts is particularly proud of its notably long history of youth theater education and performances dating back to 1938. Although the culture of the education program was and still is today to teach valuable life skills as opposed to creating "stars," there are many Beck alumni who have developed successful movie and television careers including Michael Chernus (Orange Is the New Black; Manhattan); Rachel G. Fox (iCarly, Passions, Desperate Housewives, and Hanna Montana); and Rory O'Malley (Hamilton; Tony Nominee, Book of Mormon). The history of Beck Center for the Arts is still in the making.

Kennelly review The Lightning Thief
by Laura Kennelly 24 Apr '22

24 Apr '22

Imagine your surprise if you learned your father is a Greek god. That shocking discovery means, as Percy Jackson discovers, he is a demi-god. *The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical *begins with that premise and romps merrily through the resulting action when Percy goes to a summer camp for teens. There, our hero discovers not only who he is, but also who his classmates and teachers are. On top of all that, he is assigned a quest (something all heroes must have). He must find Zeus’ stolen lightning bolt before all-out war descends upon the lesser gods and demi-gods. The show is a real feast for fantasy lovers (hand raised here). The Helen’s stadium seating suggests classic Greek theatre structures — albeit on a much smaller scale. For the rest, go to https://coolcleveland.com/2022/04/theater-review-the-lightning-thief-playho…

THE LIGHTNING THIEF THE PERRY JACKSON MUSICAL
by Roy Berko 24 Apr '22

24 Apr '22

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: Though the BW/PhSquare staging needs more schticks and awe to make it into the fantasy the story required, it gave the student performers a chance to do a different kind of musical and the audience a chance to get outside of their normal space and wander into an epic quest. Guess the kid behind me was right, however, when he said, “When is this going to be fun like the movie?” To read the entire review go to: https://royberkinfo.blogspot.com/ <https://royberkinfo.blogspot.com/> To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com/>••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*
